The Harley Gallery

Featuring the work of over 60 of Britain's most skilled basket makers, Basketry: Rescuing, Reviving, Retaining showcases the beauty and surprising diversity of traditional British basketry.

Step into the gallery and be immersed in the scent of willow, straw and hazel and surrounded by exhibits of all shapes and sizes.

From coracle boats to intricately woven straw crowns to palm-sized coasters – you may be surprised to discover just how expansive the world of basketry is.

There is an extraordinary legacy of basketmaking across Britain. They have been made and used for centuries, to carry, store, transport and to trap and the craftspeople of today are continuing this tradition.
